#1710 – Some Mid-March Stories

It is already halfway through March, and here are some stories from Delft this month:

Cold

Ironically, I feel like this month of March has been the coldest month this winter (I am writing this sentence just after coming back home at 9 PM on a Wednesday evening). To be honest I find this really strange because as we are supposed to be entering Spring soon, I would expect it would get a little bit warmer. But nope, it hasn’t been😆 .

If the temperature has been difficult to predict (not surprising afterall after having lived in the Netherlands for more than 5.5 years now😆 ), there is, at least, one thing that is certain and follows an exact pattern: the days have constantly been longer and longer, yay!!😀

You know, I have been waiting for this! I do like longer days because it is easier for me to get up early and I become more productive at work as well!!

The Amazing Race 28

Anyway, let us talk about something completely different: The Amazing Race. This February, the 28th season of The Amazing Race was premiered and, of course, I have been following this amazing reality show!

This season is a little bit unique where the contestants are all social-media personalities; in a way like a “celebrity” season of The Amazing Race. To be honest, at first I was quite skeptical about this format. But then it turned out brilliantly! I have been enjoying this season a lot and I do think, at least so far, this season has been much better than the previous one! Too bad they are on a break until early April now, though.

While on it, a spoiler alert here, btw, I read somewhere that they visited Indonesia again this season! Not a new destination though, as it was rumored to be Bali (they already visited Bali in season 22). I think this “rumour” is true though as there are a few shots in this season’s opening that look a lot like Bali. Judge them by yourself:

If you don’t catch them, a very quick shot at 0:44 clearly shows two Balinese dancers😆 .
